Ryan Cook is a surprise, Farwell, and Dugan.Evidently Klink's love of Dugan was from his hard work, not his skills.

Reisner showed more than Dugan in camp, cheaper too. O/L HAD to get younger, stronger, as we plan for the years ahead. Wish we had used the same logic on WRs as Berrian is too expensive for his production and Camerilo is too slow to sub for Harvin. Main worry is secondary, very pedestrian and LB is way too thin. We took a step in the right direction for a rebuild, now let's finish it.

No surprise there...we could not go thru the season with 5 LBs. Looking over the practice squad I did not see Reisners name. No way you put him on the 53 man active, release him to sign a need and then not put him on the practice squad.....unless he did not clear waivers. Too bad.

I was disappointed to see him go. I'd have rather seen Kenny Onatolu get cut since he's special teams only, or, better yet, jon cooper. Do we really need 3 centers & a long snapper? Makes no sense to me. We have 3 guards & 3 centers, plus the long snapper for 4. Crazy.

A google search comes up with nothing as far as him signing anywhere. How long do we have to wait for him to clear waivers?

Yeah, Sully, Coop and Fusco....is a bit much. A talking head said Fusco will be starting by years end. Onatolu is listed as a LB also, don't remember him ever being a difference maker there. Heard some talk of moving L Dean (LB) to Safety, but can he play there. He is fast enough. This will be one interesting year.

<quoted text>And Reisner did make the practice squad. Heard they get $5,700/wk. Not too shabby. What's your thoughts on why 2 FBs on practice squad and 0 on active roster?

I wonder if they intend to change deimperio's position back to linebacker. Kliensasser's played fb before, so i guess he'll line up back there more, if needed. I don't think the vikes need a true fullback since AD doesn't like to follow FB's anyway. I do think they are short on TE's & FB's combined, though, considering they intend to have 3 of them on the field at once & hey only have 3.

DeImperio was a LB in college, so that's possible. And Kliensasser has played H-back. Almost believe they will be experimenting with the offense for the first 3 or 4 games.

Just read where the Viking released 2 from the practice squad and added 2. Released: FB Asiata and DE McKinley. Added: DB Domonique Johnson and LB Tyrone McKenzie. No, PF, not premier players but Johnson is a taller DB with good speed...poor tackler. Tyrone McKenzie was a Pats draft pick (97) who went to the Bucs. MLB with good speed, surprise release. Some concern about torn ACL but playing well from what I read.
